A Trans Siberian Railway tour is a trip you will never forget and is certainly one of the world’s greatest railway
journey's (if not the greatest). You'll experience different cultures and scenic landscapes as you travel the old-
fashioned way on the world famous Trans Siberian Railway from St. Petersburg to Vladivostok, or on to
Beijing, or Japan.
By the time your train arrives in Vladivostok you will have passed through eight time zones and traveled one
third of the way around the world (over 6,000 miles) on your Trans-Siberian Railway tour.

Your Trans Siberian railway experience will change depending on the time of year you travel.
September can be a good month to travel, because it is just outside the peak season so you might
get a cheap deal. It should still be reasonably warm.
Trans Siberian Railway Tour Tips
On board the Trans Siberian Railway there is not a lot of space in your compartment, so plan your
luggage carefully.
There can be a high demand for tickets so it is recommended to purchase tickets or tour bookings
before you leave home.
Arrange your trans siberian train tickets, passport visas and hotel accommodation through a
specialist travel agency or tour company a few months before you travel. Make sure all your paper
work is in order to avoid delays or problems with local authorities.
